Product Description: N-3-Hydroxybutyryl-L-homoserine lactone (3-OH-C4-HSL) is an acyl-homoserine lactone, that can be isolated from Vibrionaceae. N-3-Hydroxybutyryl-L-homoserine lactone is a signaling molecule that is involved in bacterial quorum sensing (QS). N-3-Hydroxybutyryl-L-homoserine lactone senses the density of bacterial population, regulates the cellular process, such as bioluminescence, biofilm formation, and exo-enzyme production[1].
Applications: COVID-19-immunoregulation
Formula: C8H13NO4
